Overheard outside Z&T: Levon Barnabas preaches the GOOD NEWS!

Levon Barnabas:




In a world that wants you to be PERFECT!
In a world that wants you to be RIGHTEOUS!
In a world that demands that you do everything right!
It's GOOD to take comfort in a God who knows you are not.




Listen folks,
Your wife wants you to be a perfect husband.
Your husband wants you to be a perfect wife.
Your employer wants you to be a perfect worker.
Your kids want you to be a perfect parent.
Your parents want you to be a perfect kid.
Retailers want you to be a perfect shopper.
Your mortgage company wants you never to have a bounced payment.
Your landlord always wants the rent on time.
Your lender wants you to have perfect credit before they'll loan you any money.
Your country wants you to be a perfect citizen
Heck, even other cars on the road want you to be a perfect driver.




In this world where EVERYONE demands that you be PERFECT,
it is GOOD to know that you are loved by a PERFECT God who knows that you are NOT PERFECT, but says, "Hey, here's what I'll do:




I will come down there and LET YOU KILL ME
so that I can show you how much I love you and show you how to have a
relationship with Me."




Now THAT's good news.


So take comfort in the fact that there is ONE being who created the Universe,
who does not require you to be the perfect spouse, or co-worker, or employee, or parent, or child, or driver, or whatever ... He just wants a relationship with you.




Now, THAT ... folks,
to me...


sounds


just
PERFECT!
